The Allmusic site awarded the album 3 stars with the review by Scott Yanow stating, "Harry "Sweets" Edison and Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis always made for a logical combination for both had immediately recognizable sounds and could say an awful lot with one note... Easily recommended to straightahead jazz fans as are the later Sweets-Lockjaw recordings".[3]

gollark: Ethereum charges you for on-blockchain computing power in some way, but since the NFTs mean basically nothing and are just pointers to external things, they can totally have turing machines if they want to.
gollark: The issue with that is that mining has to be hard to *do* but easy to *verify*.
